Hello all :

I am thinking putting some translation questions here each month and we all can translate it and post your answer here, then asking some members who are good at English help us correct it.


大家可以試著翻譯上面兩句,然後把答案post here or you can PM your answer to us if you wont ppl know who you are. I will try it later as well.

您也可以"提"供一些翻譯句子,讓大家一起來翻翻樂.

Kathy, 請訂正typo:
1) 提供; 癮君子
2) 英文凡是逗點、句點、問號、冒號、分號等後面要空一格, 而其前面則不得有空格. 中文如果用的是半形的標點, 亦同.

1.In order to smokelessly provide to dine the nvironment,
many dining rooms do not allow in the room to smoke.
2.Although encounters many gentlemen's oppositions, this
to the person which does not smoke indeed is a big
gospel.

Most restaurants don't allow indoor smoking in order to provide a non-smoking enviroment.

It is indeed a gospel to those people who don't smoke alought it is against by smoking addicts.

To: Benson

>>1.In order to smokelessly provide to dine the environment, many dining rooms do not allow in the room to smoke. <<
- "to smokelessly provide"不順, 因為smokelessly不是用來修飾provide的.
- "to dine the environment"? 你要吃環境嗎?
- dining room是你家裡的餐廳, 不適用本句.
- 營業的餐廳裡雖有room, 但本句的禁菸不僅僅是"in the room".

→In order to provide a smokeless dining environment, many/most restaurants do not allow smoking indoors.

>> 2.Although encounters many gentlemen's oppositions, this to the person which does not smoke indeed is a big gospel. <<
- encounters不對, 應使用分詞encountering
- gentlemen不是癮君子.
- person於本句宜改用people.
- gospel是基督教的福音, 與本句的福音意思不同.

→Although encountering many addicted smokers' opposition, this to the people who do not smoke is indeed a wonderful news.

>> Most restaurants don't allow indoor smoking in order to provide a non-smoking enviroment. <<

- Perfect, except a typo in environment.


>> It is indeed a gospel to those people who don't smoke alought it is against by smoking addicts. <<
- gospel是基督教的福音, 與本句的福音意思不同.
- against by不對, 因against不是動詞.
- 兩處it is顯得繞口, 後面的可以分詞化.

→It is indeed a great news to those people who don't smoke although opposed by a lot of smoking addicts.

1. 為"提"供一個無煙的用餐環境, 許多餐廳不允許室內抽煙.

2. 雖然遭到許多"癮"君子的反對, 這對不抽煙的人的確是一大福音.
